Purpose:
This application note is intended to assist users to setup and configure the
CDN366 DeviceNet ASCII gateway converter module with an Allen Bradley (AB)1747-
SDN DeviceNet master scanner for the SLC500 programmable logic controller (PLC)
series.
The users must have some basic knowledge of hardware and software.
Hardware: CDN366, AB PLC, AB 1747-SDN modules.
Software: RSLinx, RSNetworx, RSLogix500, and Microsoft Windows.
The user must have a basic knowledge of DeviceNet specifications and principles.
Hardware and Software Requirements:
The hardware and software requirement is based upon the application. For this
particular application note, the hardware and software are set up based on the listing
below. Note, the configuration below is meant to demonstrate the CDN366 DeviceNet
module integrated with an AB SLC502 PLC and not intended to ask users to use the same
configuration. Based on application requirements, the CDN366 can integrate with many
brands of PLC (AB, Omron, etc.) or PC based platforms (Synergetic, etc.). As long as a
DeviceNet network is available for a particular application, the CDN366 should be able
to integrate in the network.
